Stus-List Raymarine X-5 wheel autopilot on a 38 Landfall

Hi, After many years of enjoying (and fixing/upgrading) my C&C 29 I have am upgrading to a 38 Landfall. I few years ago I installed an X-5 wheel autopilot on my 29-1.The old specs for the X-5 put a 38LF right near the upper limits. I am planning on moving the X-5 over to the 38LF before

Stus-List ActiveCaptain/Defender AutoPilot Special

Hi, I thought I would pass this info along. I am not an expert, but it looks like a good deal, and it includes a free S100 Wireless Autopilot Remote and a free Raymarine SeaTalk Converter Kit. - Paul E. 1981 C&C 38LF S/V Johanna Rose Carrabelle, FL ===

Re: Stus-List ActiveCaptain/Defender AutoPilot Special

Frank, I do not have an autopilot yet installed on my 38LF. I do have a Raymarine SPX-5 wheel autopilot which I had installed on my 29-1(it is now currently at Raymarine getting the computer repaired). A 38LF is right at the max displacement limit for a SPX-5, and I was thinking about givin

Stus-List new fresh water pump suggestions

Hi, I am in the process of upgrading the fresh water plumbing on my boat. The old fresh water pump was removed long before I obtain this project. I am currently deciding between two pumps: a Jabsco Par-Max 2.9gal/min 50psi (31395-0092) and a Jabsco Par-Max 3.5gal/min 40psi (32600-0092). The

Re: Stus-List new fresh water pump suggestions

Thanks Francois. Power draw is also a concern. The 4.4A rated amp draw for the Par-Max 2.9 makes it desirable. I was concerned with flow rate proving enough pressure for the head/shower and galley. But to be honest, I don’t expect the shower and the galley faucets will be used simultaneous

Re: Stus-List Deisel Fuel Additives?

Hi Richard, As many folks have already noted, ultra low sulfur diesel (ULSD) has been the standard since 2010. I use Biobor JF which is a Diesel Biocide and Lubricity Additive. I think most people don’t realize that Biobor is also a lube additive. On another note mentioned by others, I fa

Re: Stus-List Deisel Fuel Additives?

At my marina, I just simple dump it into the used oil tank. Other times, I have either temporarily stored it in a G2-like bottle (marked as waste oil) or simply poured it back into the jerry can (unless it clearly had water contaminants). - Paul E. 1981 C&C 38 Landfall S/V Johanna Rose Carra

Re: Stus-List Isotemp SPA water heater in a LF38

Doug, Thank you for your input. In the end I ordered the Isotherm SPA 25 as it allowed for more installation options.I have had it in hand for a few days now, and I am liking the idea of installing the unit under the port q-berth as you have it. The more I think about it, the more I am c

Re: Stus-List water missing from somewhere

Jim, If your water lines are the original grey tubing then replacing the lines are a good idea. I would also recommend replacing the fill hose(they get pretty funky and are cheap to replace). Take the time to inspect the water tanks. I found a crack midway up on the tank in the V-birth. I r

Stus-List Hurricane Ida

Dennis, I hope you and yours stay safe with the coming of Ida. I admire your resilience in the face of nature’s apparent cruelty of allowing almost enough time to recover from the last storm’s flooding before being in the crossfire of another. Yours very truly, Paul -- SV Johanna Rose C&C Lan
